A few things to try

Everything about latency. This section is mainly user/consumer discussion. (Peer-reviewed scientific discussion should go in Laboratory section). Tips, mouse lag, display lag, game engine lag, network lag, whole input lag chain, VSYNC OFF vs VSYNC ON, and more! Input Lag Articles on Blur Busters.

A few things to try

Post by Hyote » 21 May 2025, 09:06

I'm going to share a few things that have been overlooked by others (as always) and I'll start with the least risky one:
Setting virtual memory to 1.5x your total memory - for 16 GB that would be 1.5x16x1024=24576.
I had to enable this setting for a Call of Duty game and I found that the weird desynced feeling in other games were also gone and every gunfight started being more constant.

The second one is a registry setting that has been set to 1000 for most custom OSes but I find 250 to be just right. Makes mouse movements a lot more snappy for me. Delete it if it's not good.
REG ADD "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\kernel" /v "DebugPollInterval" /t REG_DWORD /d "250" /f >NUL 2>&1

For last are some Autoruns entries that I found to be influencing mouse movement as well. I'm pretty sure if I can disable them without issues, anyone can, but obviously if the entries are tied to devices you are using, leave them checked.
Options -> uncheck Hide Windows Entries
Services tab:
Bluetooth related services
Udk services
wmiApSrv
other than these I already had a bunch of things disabled, that can be done via services.msc

Hi Hyote, I think it's time for your new "Very long postinstall guide", and it would be cool if you made it on your github. Best regards and thanks.

Hey, I've been thinking about making a guide there, but if there is demand then I'm going to make it happen sometime soon.

tks bro, following your github guide, hope u can make a "simple" that have most positive effects on reducing latency by removing placebo ones....

There is so much to cover with the EXM paid tool being leaked now. Over 8000 regedits, with like 1000 completely new for me.

Hyote, you always find a new fix or solution.Why should people trust you if your game isn't perfect either? One time you have this solution, the next time it's another one.

Where did you read the words fix or solution? But to answer you anyway, it's about making everything come together by sharing settings I find useful .
Also I might have some floaty mouse feel left but I remember using this exact PC with 800 DPI because anything else felt uncontrollable. Now I can use 3200 DPI on the desktop and it feels natural.

I once applied a tweak on the mouse for windows 10 from a comrade with the nickname “Hyote” and after that double clicks on folders stopped working. So his “tweaks” are really dangerous :lol: be careful!!! I do not advise you to change “DoubleClickHeight” and “DoubleClickWidth” to “-” value. Leave it at the default.
